| Emacs won't let me interactively find-file any file whose name
| contains a `$', because of environment variable substitution.
| It *is* possible to (find-file "foo$") or something like that.
|
| May be many people will consider this a nitpicky and unimportant
| point, but nevertheless, I thought I'd report it, since find-file of
| foo\$ won't work either.  (Also, I changed my own backup file
| pathnames recently to use $ instead of ~ to escape system scavengers).

  Try '^X^Ffoo$$' to get 'foo$'.  Also, if you try '^X^Ffo^I' for
  completion that only matches 'foo$' you will get 'foo$$' which then
  finds the file 'foo$'.  Plus, it works for imbeded '$'s i.e.
  '^X^Ffoo$$bar' finds the file 'foo$bar'.
